Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Crawl Space Repair in Huntsville, AL

This customer in Huntsville, AL, called Frontier after noticing that the crawl space supports were failing. We decided on SmartJacks to stabilize the support system and an encapsulation to address the moisture issues. Once the structure was stabilized with our SmartJack system, we started the encapsulation process. This included installing our Drainage matting, CleanSpace liner, and a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. We finished the project with a new crawl space door.

Failing Crawl Space Supports

Tilted, uneven, sinking, or rotting supports in the crawl space: Your crawl space is supported with a number of horizontal beams, occasionally combined with vertical support posts to maintain the integrity of the structure. The best way to identify this issue is to venture into the space and investigate for yourself - if you notice foul odors, dampness on the ground or on the wood of the floor above you, or see bent, warped, or sinking support beams, then you have found the source of your problem.

Moisture Issues

Moisture Issues are present in the crawl space, as seen by the wet spots on the old crawl space barrier.

Drainage Matting

Drainage matting forms a permanent seal for leaking crawl space floors.

Piers Wrapped

Piers are wrapped in CleanSpace® poly to create a continuous air and moisture barrier.

SaniDry Sedona

The Sedona easily fits in small crawl spaces, yet has a powerful blower to effectively dry large crawl spaces. Mold and mildew are common in crawl spaces, but the Sedona keeps the relative humidity below 55%, so mold won't stand a chance.

CleanSpace Vapor Barrier

One key ingredient in our encapsulation system is the CleanSpace® vapor barrier, a super-durable 20-mil plastic sheet designed to permanently prevent moisture, outside air, and pests from entering your crawl space.

SmartJack System Installed

The SmartJack Crawl Space Stabilizer is an adjustable supplemental support system used for sagging crawl spaces. It not only provides supplemental support to your failing structure -- it can also often lift failing floor joists or beams, restoring them to their original position.

Stronger Crawl Space Support

Our crawl space support system can support vertical loads exceeding 60,000 pounds, which is far stronger than conventional concrete repairs.

Crawl Space Sealing

Crawl space sealing and insulation will help you avoid unnecessary repairs, create a healthier living space, and save money on your utility bills. And once you've encapsulated your crawl space with a vapor barrier, you've gained valuable storage space in your home.

New Crawl Space Door

Our EverLast™ Crawl Space Doors are created with ½" thick solid plastic, and they will never rust, rot, or need paint. Sturdy knobs allow for easy access and ensure a tight seal for many years to come.
